Br BILL JENKINS
The good old days were recalled
the other day when we sat down
long enough to' thumb through a
1031 Klamath Touring Oulde and a
sheet of Instructions concerning
Crater Lake Issued in the same
year. Both of them were brought
down by Bob Abbey of 930 Lin
coln, who seemed to realize that
they would bit the spot.
The touring- guide was put out
by the Klamath County Auto As
sociation and the chamber of com
merce and lists such points of In
terest as Crater Lake, the Lava
Beds, Klamath Hot Springs, Klam
ath River Canyon, Spink's Camp.
Bird Island and the Eagle Ridge
Tavern. The latter is listed as a
beautiful rustic hotel on the point
of Eagle Ridge with Alpine climb
ing, near Mt. Pitt and overlooking
Klamath Lake. Spink's Camp was
located on Spring Creek and boast
ed it was "where fly fishing Is at
Its best.
The brochure Informs us that
25,000 tourists visited the Klamath
country In tne year prior, we also
learn that Klamath had a popula
tion of 8,000, 100,000 acres of Ir
rigated land and 200,000 more to
be reclaimed, a payroll of a mil
lion dollars a month and several
standard rigs boring for oil. The
agenda goes on to list such facts
a that there was an undeveloped
potential of a million horsepower
on the Klamath River, that the
climate is clear and cool in sum
mer and mild In winter, was the
second city in Oregon in amount
of freight shipment out, was the
box shook manufacturing center of
the Pacific Const and had the finest
hotel service between Portland and
San Francisco.
Link River was listed as one of
the top fishing streams of the area,
and "many lakes In this region are
still available only by means of
trails and timber roads." It goes
on to say that "fish abound In
great numbers and every fisher
man gets his share."
On the hunting scene we are told
that you can find plenty of boar,
deer and elk, not to mention
grouse, pheasant, quail, ducks and
geese and a plentitude of sage
hens.
And In parting we find that
"county roads are being built at
great cost, which takes time and
patience on the part of the tourist,
but the beauty and grandeur of the
scenery more than repays for the
trip.
Oood old days, indeed. You
could, on top of all the rest, take
a launch and go down Lake
Ewauna and on down the Klamath
River to the canyon where there
was good camping and fishing.
When Albert B- Fall was secre
tary of the interior he issued a list
of hints to the motorist visiting
Crater Lake. For Instance: "Horns
should be sounded when approach
ing curves, vehicles, pedestrians
or saddle animals." Or take this
one: "Teams have the right of way
at all times and in all places. If
horses appear nervous automobiles
will take the outer edge of the road
and engines will be stopped until
horses have passed." We also
learn that muffler cutouts must
be closed when passing horses, ho
tels or camps, that the speed limit
on curves and grades Is 12 miles
per hour but you can speed up to
20 on the straightaways, and that
you may save a broken spring if
you stay out of the ruts In the
road. ;
They were great old days. The
only thing we find missing is men
tion of a boat cruise on the Upper
Lake,
It still seems to us that the peo
ple In those days had more fun
than we do in our modern world.
At least they had more time to
enjoy It.

TELLING THE EDITOR
INDIAN SPEAKS
I Will speak my mind bluntly as
e. Klamath Indian to all whom 11
may concern.
This yea of 1063, the United
States Government said they have
taken the first step to pave the
way for the American Indian to
ward citizenship.
Citizenship for the Klamath In
dian and other tribes is not just a
thing or affair to be handled in
haste of that which Is to be de
cided by all.
It is a real problem, a serious
question, proposed for solution and
discussion for my tribe of people,
for there are millions of dollars
Involved In our reservation's value.
Indians fought the government
soldiers for land and what was
theirs. They died doing It till u
treaty was signed and they were
put on a reservation; It is the last
piece of land Indians rightfully own
to this date.
The situation now for Indians Is
this last piece of land we rightly
own.
The Reservation I am pertaining
to Is the Klamath Indian Reserva
tion in the Slate of Oregon.
The United States Government
has put a definite time lor Indians
to agree to terms of their own on
what to do with the reservation.
Peoples or the Klamaths, the
Modocs, and the Yahosskln band
of the Snake Indians are split up
to their own mind of thinking.
Some want the reservation intact,
definite, some want the reservation
lor its full value In equal shares,
some want the right to hunt and
fish and keep the reservation in
tact but have full citizenship.
There are more than two thou
sand enrolled members on the
Klamath Indian Reservation. Each
is to have equal share of the Tri
bal resources such as real prop
erty, securities and cash. '
A numbered amount of Indians
are for abolishing the Indian reser
vation, which are at each council
meeting, their votes on their ob
jective so tar have won every time
a council meeting Is held.
The Indian council house can
hold only about throe hundred peo
ple at one time. If two hundred
members of Uie Uiree hundred In
dians vote to abolish Uie reserva
tion. It is assumed the reservation
Is to be abolished.
Not one-third of the two thou
sand tribal members are there to
vote, lor or against such a serious
predicament.
The Indians of the North Amer
ican tribes should want to see and
read the treaty our ancestors have
signed on our bohnlf beforo any
reservation la signed for abolish
ing; for by that same treaty wc
.own this reservation we have to
day. It was on the front page of the
"Herald and News." that It reads:
The Klamath Indiana have a
lifelong stand of Ponderosa Um
ber. Reservation Ponderosa tim
ber aold at ft record pries of $52.00
R thousand. The hardest metal ti
tanium Is found on Klamath In
dian Reservation by E. J. Dlehl,
superintendent for the Klamath
tribe.
It has other sources of great
wealth which amart old ancestors
used to their benefits; streams ior
lish, forests for deer, lakes for
ducks and geese, land, forests and
water we all benefit by.
Legal advice for some of our de
cisions Is advisable In order to
know what Is to be done with the
reservation and all Its wealth, from
a white man's view, that would not
hurt no Indian. The white man
made the United States and now
holds it. Would white man sell In
dian reservation If he owned It?
"I think not."
Our future is Involved, Including
the correct amount of money free
from error, legal land rights, legal
members of the tribe, If someone
at one time or other took a with
drawal from the tribe with cash
Involved.
We Indians don't want to be in
fluenced by those that are not en
titled to tribal funds, for the In
dian reservation Is our sole Income
ns long as It stands In our hands.
We con not afford to be sorry 10
or 20 years from now.
When we are no longer wards of
the government and ore citizens,
wc know the reservation will be
taxable under the state's Jurisdic
tion. If the Indians agree to hold the
reservation as an annual income,
then there must be an agreement
on aainimstration from the tribe.
Elect and vote, "If have to."
Reservation's annual profits will
have to meet all taxes and then
management will show Individual
net Income.
If It Is agreed to sell the reser
vation lor citizenship and its full
value, then we want money tax
Iree. Wo do not poy taxes on mon
ey under the treaty and should not
pay taxes on the reservation's val
ue. Let selling of reservation be
signed by. every Individual Indian,
21 years of age, parents, foster
parents, next of kin, authority for
those held under authorities, thumb
print for those that speak only In
dian, so wo will know the reser
vation Is sold by signing of our
legal rights, within our laws, to be
a lact and truth in the laws 01
the United States of America.
We should not be begrudged nl
what wc want. After all, Individual
white people's lands, reserves,
communities, states and their gov
ernment have all America, even
some of our own Indian reserva
tion. We want something In return,
for we have been run over long
enough.
Paying lor reservation In full
value to Indian, free of taxes, is
showing Indians the only way white
people's government can pay us In
full for something which was all
the Indians' In the first place.
We are a ward to the govern
ment today. II we were a poor
tribe, It Is the government's place
10 help us. For when the reserva
llon Is gone, money Is next, then
you and I will be a real dying
race. Some accomplishment should
be shown for ancestors and old
peoples' past. Let s not have to out
down In our history as all to be
lost.
Last but not least we should
never have to give up the only land
we Indians rightly own.

A new year is with us. The sun
is still very low in the southern
sky during the entire day, and Is
above the horizon only about half
as long as during the longest days
of June.
At present, the planets Mercury
and Venus are practically In the
direction of the sun and so are ab
solutely Invisible to the unaided
eye during any time of day or
night.
Yellow Saturn and red Mars are
now huddling close together. An
hour before sunrise they are a lit
tle east of due south and fairly
well up in the sky. Their closest
approach to each other was on the
morning of Jan. 2 when Saturn
was only a little more than one
degree above Mars. Saturn Is
somewhat the brighter of the two,
but neither can at present be
classed as brilliant.
The planet Jupiter is now a fine
"evening star." Half an hour alter
sunset It is well above the horizon
somewhat north of east. By 10 p.m.
this splendid object glows only a
Utile south of the Zenith, and sets
in the west-northwest about an
hour before sunrise. Jupiter Is very
brilliant, now ranked as magnitude
minus 2.3, and is easily the most
luminous of any "star-like" body
hi the sky. But like all the other
planets, It is not a star (stars are
all distant suns) but another world
of our solar system.
For our evening observations of
the brighter stars, let us study the
sky around two hours after sunset!
A little above the horizon In the
east-southeast, we find the finest
of all star groups, the constella
tion Orion, the Hunter. The most
noticeable feature here Is the short
vertical line of three moderately
bright stars, evenlnly spaced anil
all of nearly the same brightness.
This is the belt of the famous hunt
er. To the left and a little higher
than the belt, we find the brilliant
red star Betelgeuse In Orion's
shoulder; to the right and a little
lower, the blue-white Rlgel blazing
in his shoe buckle.
Considerably above Oiion, note
the small V of the Hyadcs lying
on its side with the point toward
the right. The only bright star In
this group Is orange Aldebaran
at the end of the lower arm of the
V. Still higher than the Hyadcs,
the conspicuous but still smaller
group of the little stars of the
Pleiades form a tiny dipper.
Above the east-northeastern hor
izon, we spot orange Pollux with
his twin brother yellow Castor im
edlately above him. Much high
er, yellow Capella sparkles. Note
Procyon almost on the eastern
horizon.
Above the northwestern horizon,
bright Vega twinkles; still higher,
less-brilliant Dcneb. Into the wes
tern horizon Altair will soon set:
and Into the southwest Fomalhaut
will disappear.

NEW YORK Ifl President El
senhower sides today with those
who believe It possible to prevent
a "boom-and-bust" economy in
America. A great many people
share his view and applaud his
determination.
There are many others, however
who believe that the old-fashioned
business cycle can't be changed by
government tinkering. Some argue
that such tinkering can do as much
harm as good in the long run
There is slill a third group that
believes that while the business
cycle of prosperity followed bv re
cession can't be avoided entirely
It Is possible both to prevent the
boom from getting out of hand and
to cushion the dips.
Die President's speech promis
ing the government will continue to
use "every legitimate means" to
sustain prosperity will revive the
d'bole over government's role as
a prop or pump-priincr for busi
ness. Means used so far to combat the

ALONG NATURE'S TRAIL
By KEN McLEOD
The signs along the river bank
may read: "Danger, Pollution.
Swimming, Pishing and Boating
Prohibited." But do the children
playing there read signs? And If
Ihey do, or if their parents warn
them awoy, how far must they go
to enjoy the water-fun that chil
dren need and deserve?
The tragedy of this situation,
however, is not the placing of warn
ing signs by an alert and conscien
tious public health organization but
the fact that many such an organ
ization does not always place signs
on such polluted waters because
they are restrained by political or
other uiasons Irom doing so. It is
the duty and moral obligations of
public health organizations to post
signs warning the public of con
taminated waters. And when they
do not' post signs over waters
known to be contaminated you can
bet your bottom dollar that the
fear of reprisal, political or other
wise is the hand that stops the ac
tion. Then if polluted waters exist and
the public is not warned should
we lay the blame upon the sanitary
authorities? I think not, because,
almost ln the second breath we
as the public will refuse to stand
behind any courageous action. In
fact, we will even go a little fur
ther than that, we may not say it
but Its Implication is well under
stood by all parties concerned
"Bubl If you tell me I'm the
stinker lust pack your duds."
In many places around the na
tion we find courageous action be
ing taken not only on lakes and
rivers but on the sea as well. The
surf breaks on a stretch of gleam
ing sand. Here, it seems, is the
ideal refuge from the heat of the
city a tew miles awav. But the
beach is completely deserted. Again
tne signs tell the story, "Closed,
Pollution."
The lonely patrolman has the
thankless job of shooing kids away.
A few miles away along the shore,
thousands of people . throng the
water's edge. But soon these same
signs may be posted there. Where
will the thousands go then? I re
member reading some statistics
about southern California-, the fig
ures I do not recall but they were
Impressive, they gave the number
of miles of excessive driving the
people of the southland were forced
to make in order to find an un
polluted beach on the ocean.
Fish can't read signs. They don't
need to. They left the river or lar.e
a long time ago. And the boys
from the oitlce have to drive fifty
miles for a day's fishing; their
lamllles have to drive twenty-five
miles tor a picnic. These are com
monplace items our eastern friends
write to us. Not very impressive
to us here in the west who are
used to the wide open spaces, yet
they are impressive to one who
knows the intensity of modern city
life. The result is that these people
of the east don't take to the open
country as much as they used to.
All this means that by polluting
our waterways we are depriving
ourselves of the real recreation
that enjoyment of nature can
bring. By cleaning up our waters
we can enrich our lives many-fold.
In spile of general recognition of
this tact the signs continue to mul
tiply, of course they do not gen
erally break out into the open to
stare us in the lace until conditions
are so bad that public olficlals are
forced to move against the seeming
ly incredulous opposition of me
public. In this consideration
water Is polluted or It Isn't there
Is no halfway measure and bv
pollution we mean contaminated
by untreated human waste.
Here In Klamath Falls we are
no different than many another
city we too should be looking at
signs but we don't. A discussion
01 one's privy Is a subject that is
decidedly out of place in polite
society it is a subject only for
crude Joke books but it is no joke
It matters not If it Is the nos
talgic two holer of Chick Sales
fame or the shiny white vltiious
contraption of a modern bath
room gleaming in tile and chrome
human wastes must be accounted
for. It makes 110 difference if it is
a hole in the ground, a septic lank
or a "sanitary" sewer if untreated
human waste reaches the waters of
our streams the sign should be
there.
This then is the question we must
face and we must onswer
Why has no sign been placed on
Link River and Lake Ewauna
"No Fishing, Polluted Water."
It Is because, we, like the fabled
ostrich that hides its head In the
sand, likewise do not care to face
the traveling public? Or would it
be an offense to the city to mnke
an admission that faces every city?
Or would it be bad advertising to
the traveling public? Or would 1
be an offense to the Park Board
to have the nasty sign planted on
their nice new lawn they want a
"beautiful park" and nothing must
detract from their opinion of
beauty. This writer wants to know
why the sign should not be there.
JAMES MARLOW
By EDWIN P. JOHDAN, M. D.
Certainly, enormous numbers of
people suffer Irom unpleasant ail
ments which do not have any ser
ious significance so far as life or
general health are concerned, but
which bother them enormously.
Q My husband has suffered
from sweating feet and bad odor
practically all his life. Nothing
helped until about 10 years ago he
tried bathing his feet In formalde
hyde solution once a month. Have
you any other suggestions?
Mrs. W. A.
A The condition of unpleasantly
smelling perspiration goes under
the name of bromhidrosls. This
can be either general or localized
as it Is in the case of Mrs. A's
husband. Attention should be paid
to any substance in the diet such
as onion or garlic which might be
excreted in the sweat and give it
an offensive odor. Other chemicals
besides formaldehyde are some
times used as footbaths. In a few
cases X-ray treatments are found
helpful when the condition Is local
ized. Q My eight-year-old boy has
been losing his hair in large spots
on various parts of his head. How
does this happen, and will his hair
grow back? Mrs. M. S.
A This description fits the con
dition known as alopecia areata, or
baldness ln spots. The cause is not
known, but in the majority, the
hair is likely to grow back after
a period, perhaps months ln length,
Q Is there any drug on the mar
ket which will stop a person from
smoking? G.M.T.
A Several have been suggested
from time to time, and these have
their advocates. Personally, I am
dubious UiHt there Is anything ot
this sort which works well with
everybody and Is safe at the same
time.
Q What could be the cause of a
perirectal abscess which has been
troublesome for nearly 10 years?
W. L.
A There are several possiblitles.
one of them being that the basic
trouble is a fistula. Many of these
are considered to be of tubercular
origin. In all probability, a con
dition of this kind which has gone
on so long will require surgery,
perhaps rather extensively, before
complete recovery Is attained.
Q A friend of mine has a
dropped bladder and would like to
know if Uie operation to correct it
Is a big one. Mrs. G.
A A correction of such a condi
tion might well take a good deal
of time, and certainly skill. If the
condition, however, is really trou
blesome, the operation is probably
well worth while.
NEW YORK (fl The average
wife complains her husband doesn't
talk enough at home, 'jne average
employer complains tnat same Hus
band srjends too much time exer.
cislng his vocal cords at the office.
Both the wife and the boss are
absolutely right. Naturally. But
what can be done about it? How
can the boss get this husband to
gab less while he's on the job, and
the wife make him give with a
little more conversation after he
comes home and takes on nis
shoes?
The problem as I see It Is quite
simple. The hired hands come to
work full of overnnight woes they
are eager to pour into any ear.
All day long ihey lope from desk
to desk telling their troubles.
But when they return at even
tide to their little castles and the
good wife begs, "Tell me what's
new at the office? Well, what can
they reply? They don't know any
thing new. becouse they have been
so busy bragging about their own
problems they huven't had a
chance to listen to the other fel
low. Besides, they don t want to
talk. Their Jawbones are worn out
already.
Now, here is a simple, easy way
to solve this problem In a way to
please everybody concerned hired
hand, boss ana wife. You do it
with cards.
When the employes arrive for
work, they are handed cards and
are alloted 15 minutes in which
to write down all the interesting
things that have happened to them
since the day before. The cards
are filled out in quadruplicate. One
goes to the boss, the others are
put on "Condition of Staff" bul
letin boards, located by the office
water cooler and In the men's and
ladies' rest rooms,
Here is a typical card:
"Nome of employe "Joseph X.
Blow Jr."
State of Health "Dreamed I
was shipwrecked last night and
woke up feeling seasick. Took so
dium bicarb. No help. Any sug
gestions? May have to go homo be
fore noon if don't get better."
State of Wife's Health "She was
born tired."
And the Children? ''My little fel
ler sure said a cute thing last
night. I was rilling there reading
the paper, and all of a sudden he
pointed at a picture and said.
'Glub, glub, da-da.' and he Isn't
even three' years old yet. How do
you like that?"
Family Finonces "Paid last In
stallment on my car this week.
Buying new car next week If can
make old one hold out until then." 1
Other Problems "New Neigh-1
bors moved In yeslerdtj
Hicttjr iiuiiiiu; ia nie. L, '
-U Vlt tl till ...L-..'
be real problem." '
Remarks "Saw doglirt,
tween collie and alrdale V,
to work this mornlnir. k.?
know how It came out as 1
driving through red light .,
and couldn't slop. First airdi.
nen in veam. Uni -
though, Oood dog, too.'' "
Suggestions to ImDrnv. .
Efficiency "I still sav 11 J
break any hearts if itteyt J
little more mnnpu im.... ."I
place. Payday here is like iS
in line at the pool house "
The virtue of this "staff w
Hon" cord system is that it
save Uie time wasted on toJ
the ordinary offlre 1-nn.J.r
thirds of the work day. Ei
an employe went to the walt.
er or the rest room he could
a few more cards.
He would be satisfied id

In fact, the only thlni J
with this system is that , if

WASHINGTON W! "No splkka
da English."
That was all sen. Mlllikin of Col
orado would tell newsmen when
he and other Republican leaders
in Congress came out of a White
House conlerence with President
Eisenliowcr.
It was a long speech when com
pared with the statements of some
of the other congressional captains
who had nothing more to say of
their talk with Eisenhower than
"Harummmph" and "Hmmm."
For three days several weeks
ago the President had them In to
discuss the program he starts un
veiling for Congress tomorrow.
They emerged like men who had
taken vows of silence, which they
probably did.
Yesterday Elsenhower sat down
in his olfice with the Democratic
leaders lo talk over his defense
and foreign programs, but when
Ihey trooped out their lips were
pretty well buttoned too.
This might be astonishing, in the

won't last.
Right alter taking office in 1953
Elsenhower asked his Republican
leaacrs to drop in at the White
House to confer with him on prob
lems. The most Important of Ihem,
like the lale Sen. Taft and House
Speaker Martin, were willing to
tell newsmen when thev led the
President the subject of their dis
cussion but usually not what was
said.
This time. It seems, the congres
sional visitors agreed to be even
less talkative than that. Eisenhow
er's press secretary. James C.
Hagerty, had a written statement
for newsmen after each day's ses
sion. Hagerty explained briefly what
was talked about, like taxes or so
cial security, but never a word on
what who said to whom and what
was said back ln approval or disagreement.
But once Eisenhower reads his
State of the Union message to
Congress tomorrow all signals are
off. The agreed-upon silence was
to give him a chance to disclose
his program publicly before it was
discussed publicly.
And the session of Congress
which opens toony will certainly
be remembered for the amount of
discussion if not for the amount
or quality of the legislation.
When Eisenhower asked the
Democrats to see .him It could be
considered a friendlv bid for bi
partisanship, which is something
Elsenhower will need before this
session ends if he is to put over
his program.
Since not all his own Republi
cans share all Ills ideas, it can
oe taken lor granted some of them
will be saying more than 'Ha
rummmph" and "Hmmmm" once
his messsce is delivered, and not
in approval.
Any defection from the Rcpubll
can ranks, in a Congress where
the "parties are so evenly divided
will make It all that more urgent
for Elsenhower to have Democrat
ic support on his major proposals
This being an election year. It Is
hardly likely the Democrats at
yesterday's session would make
blanket promises of support or that
Elsenhower would ask them to.
By the time this session is two
months old all of Eisenhower's ges-
lines 01 goon win may nave count
ed for nothing and been forgotten
because of what mav happen ln
Congress Itself between now and
then.
